Chapter 5
Disclaimer: I do not own Harry Potter! But owning Draco Malfoy would be nice…
"Come on girls. We don't have all day!" yelled Mrs. Pradhan from upstairs
"Coming mom!" yelled Nehal back from downstairs
As Danielle, Jackie and Heather were fighting over the mirror. Nehal remembered her love poem Ron wrote her. "Oh no!" She thought. "Jackie!" she yelled.
Heather said, "Ow! I think you broke my ear drums."
"What's sup Neh Neh?" said Jackie
"Where's my letter?"
"What letter?"
"If you lost it…I will be so mad…"
"Oh…you mean the love poem Ron gave you?"
"Ya!" interrupted Danielle. "Why haven't you opened it yet?"
Both Nehal and Jackie looked at Danielle
"I mean…what love poem."
Jackie got the poem out of her trunk and handed it to Nehal, she tore it open. Danielle, Jackie and Heather all gathered around her as she read it out loud.
Dear Nehal:
Roses are red
Violets are blue
You are so true
To whom you are
I can't stop thinking about you
You're the only one I want
For my art
I wanna swim with you in a lake
I wanna sex you up in a tree
I wanna lie like this in our beds
Until its time for dessert
"Er…well that was interesting." said Nehal a little disappointed
"Well one thing is for sure!" said Jackie. "He sucks at poetry. I still say you burn it Nehal!"
"Jackie!"
"Oh come on Neh Neh. He's such a perv."
Danielle said, "But it's so cute. Ian hasn't done anything like that for me."
"Draco hasn't either." said Jackie dreamily
Nehal cleared her throat. "Speaking of the word DRACO, what were you dreaming of last night?"
"Say what?" asked Jackie. Then a bit hesitant she said, "What did I say?"
"Something like." Nehal imitated Jackie. "Oh Draco, oh, yes!" Heather and Danielle burst out laughing.
"Just what were you dreaming of?" Heather said practically crying
"Oh look at the clock. It's time for dinner." said Jackie. With that she dashed upstairs. Everyone looked at the clock.
Heather said, "It's only 3:00!"
Danielle, Nehal and Heather walked upstairs to see Jackie hiding behind Mr. Pradhan.
"Come on, hurry up then." said Mr. Pradhan
Nehal said, "Dad I think we can handle this floo powder thing."
"Well alright you remember how?"
"Yes dad."
"I'm going first!" said Jackie as she hoped that the dizziness from traveling with floo powder would make her friends forget about the situation with her dream.
Jackie walked into the fire place. She took a handful of powder. When Jackie was about to say Diagon Alley, Nehal, Heather and Danielle all made kissing noises.
"Oh Draco, more, more, more, yeah (smooch, smack), oh I love you Draco, yes, yes, Mmm…"
Jackie blushed. "Diagon Alley…Draco!" And she vanished.
"Did she just say Diagon Alley Draco?" asked Nehal
"I wonder if it would work if I said Diagon Alley Ian!" said Danielle
Heather and Nehal looked at her.
"What? It was just a suggestion."
Nehal yelled, "Dad! We need some help."
"I'm sorry Nehal." Mr. Pradhan yelled back, "I'm taking a bubble bath!"
"Okay, we're screwed."
"Well." said Heather." She said Diagon Alley so maybe when we get there we can split up and see if we can find Jackie."
Meanwhile at Flourish and Blots Draco was looking for some books. Just then, out of the blue Jackie dropped into his arms. All of his books fell to the ground.
Jackie said, "Omg how on earth did I get here?"
"Ahem." coughed Draco
Jackie looked to the person that was holding her. "Oh hello Draco…DRACO!"
"Shh…hissed Draco. "Did you travel by floo powder?"
"Oh yeah…I did! Ha ha!"
Draco thought. "This girl is cracked up but I still like her." He said. "Er…are you okay?"
Jackie looked at herself. She was covered in dirt and felt pretty dizzy. "Yeah…sort of."
Draco gently put her down. Jackie stood straight for a moment, and then she swayed and fell against Draco.
"Uh…" said Draco
"Sorry, but traveling by floo powder makes me dizzy. "said Jackie.
"It's okay me too." said Draco. (Aww), as Jackie fell into a book shelf and knocked all the books over. "Oops… my bad. Do you want help?"
"Yeah sure."
"Draco?"
"Yeah?"
"We need to use our wands!"
"So?"
"You need to let go off my hand because I'm right handed and you're holding my hand and yeah…"
"Yeah listen Jackie…"
"Yes…" Jackie waited eagerly
"Draco let's go! Move aside you filthy girl!" Mrs. Malfoy pushed through the couple, invading their privacy.
Jackie fell to the ground.
"Come on Draco, your father is waiting for you."
"But mother!"
Mrs. Malfoy turned to Jackie, "Oh you can put these books back we don't need them anymore." She threw them on top of Jackie.
"Mother…" said Draco
"Not now Draco." Mrs. Malfoy dragged Draco out of the store. Draco looked at Jackie and turned his gaze towards his mother and left.
The assistant walked over to Jackie, "Can I help you?"
Jackie looked at the assistant. "Why does love have to be so painful?"
"Um…I take that as a no."
Just then Nehal and Danielle came rushing into the store.
Nehal said, "There you are Jackie, we've been looking all over for you…what you are doing on the floor?"
"It's a long story." answered Jackie
Danielle and Nehal helped Jackie up and helped put the books back.
"Where's Hey Hey?" asked Jackie
Danielle looked back at the door. "She was behind us just a minute ago."
Heather spotted Neville and his grandma walking through Diagon Alley.
"Poor Neville." thought Heather. "He must be so embarrassed. I know I'll go cheer him up."
Heather ran towards the, "Hey Neville!" She said and gave him a hug.
"Oh hi Heather." said Neville, his face turning red
Heather smiled and out her hand for Neville's grandma to shake. "Hi I'm Heather Reid. I believe we haven't met before."
Neville's grandma was shocked. She has no idea who this Heather girl was, but she shook her hand anyways.
"Not a big talker eh?" said Heather. "Don't worry it happens all the time!" She patted Neville's grandma's hand
"Umm…sorry Heather but I can't really talk to you now because…um…because…grandma is umm…taking me…"
"Underwear shopping." said his grandma
Neville blushed furiously
"Oh…um…well…have funs then!" said Heather, as she stood there in shock as they left.
Danielle said, "Hey Heather, what was that all about?"
"Oh um…nothing." Heather said quickly.
"Right…" said Nehal
"It would only embarrass Neville more if I told you!"
"Fine! Omg Jackie look at the new Quidditch broom."
"Want to go to Magical Menagrie, Heather?" asked Danielle
Heather replied, "Ya sure!"
Nehal dragged Jackie over to the big crowd.
Jackie said, "Neh Neh, I can't even see the broom."
Nehal jumped up and down trying to see the broom. "It's brown…gold writing."
"Well, what it's called?"
"Don't know, I can't see."
"Okay well…how much does it cost? Maybe we could buy brooms for the whole Quidditch team?"
"Do you know how expensive that is going to be?"
Jackie said, "Well your parents…"
"Are going to kill me, if I do!" finished Nehal
"I can't see a thing."
"All right that's the last straw! I'm losing patience."
"Uh oh!" said Jackie, "Nehal they got here first!"
"And I got here second!"
Nehal pushed her way through the crowd with Jackie behind her apologizing to the people.
"Wow the Swifter 400!" said Nehal admiring it up close. She whistled.
"I hope you're not going to steal it too!"
Nehal looked at Jackie, "You were in the car too Jackie!"
"Ya but I wasn't driving."
Nehal rolled her eyes. "Whatever."
Just as they were talking they could hear the people behind them moving about, to let someone through.
"Ouch."
"Hey watch it!"
"That was a private part you touched!"
Jackie looked at Nehal. "Nehal?"
"Ya."
"We, I mean you pushed them aside a long time ago! Why are they reacting now?"
"British kids are slow!" Nehal commented in a toneless voice. "If only…" Her thoughts were interrupted by the most unimaginable person.
"Excuse me!" said Draco. "But according to the rules, I always get front seat!"
Jackie thought, "There are rules for looking at a broom?"
Nehal looked at Draco from the glass. He was a few inches taller than her. "Did you put extra gel this morning?"
"Your point being!" sneered Draco. He shoved Nehal and Jackie aside like a curtain.
"Don't touch her Malfoy!" said a voice behind them. It was Ron. (Dun Dun Dun)
Draco turned around, "Weasley."
"Don't you know how to treat the ladies Malfoy?"
Draco glared at Ron. "Of course I do."
"So basically the way you treat ladies is you push them out of the way in order to get what you want. You're taller than them. You can stand behind them."
Nehal thought, "Wow. I've never seen this side of Ron before."
Draco marched up to Ron. Draco grew a lot that summer and how he was the same height as Ron. However, Draco still kept his well built physique. "What's your problem Weasel?"
"You're my problem Malfoy. You always have been since first year."
Harry and Hermione came and stood behind Ron.
Ron said, "Face it Malfoy you're out numbered! Without your dad your nothing!"
Jackie thought, "Poor Draco. I wish there was something I could do to help."
Draco was furious. He clenched his fists.
Several kids from the crowd got scared and ran away, but the teenagers stayed for this would be a day to remember.
"How dare you insult me like that!" growled Draco and held up his fists ready to punch Ron.
"No!" cried Nehal, as Draco took his aim. Nehal thought he would stop, but it was too late.
There was silence.
Nehal's nose was bleeding very badly.
"Nehal are you okay?" said Jackie and went beside her.
Draco was shocked and speechless, "I…I…I…it was meant for someone else."
Nehal looked at Draco and then turned to Ron. "Thanks for the support." And then walked away.
Jackie turned to Draco. "How could you?"
"I…" Draco started off and then he stopped. "You shouldn't be here…it's dangerous."
"Dangerous?" scoffed Jackie. "Hello Draco, this is Diagon Alley!"
"When did you get here?" asked Draco
"Like cha!" said Jackie. "I was second in line!" She ran off to find Nehal
Draco thought, "What I have done?"
"Nehal!" yelled Jackie. "Nehal!"
Nehal spun around at the sound of Jackie's voice.
"Are you okay?" asked Jackie
"Ya I'm fine." said Nehal. "Let's just find Danie and Hey Hey!"
"Neh Neh!" Jackie said. "He didn't even notice me!"
"Well that's what you get when you fall in love with a Slytherin."
"Ya but…Danielle's going out with Ian!"
"You like Slimeball, not Smithereens!"
"Who's Smithereens?"
"Ian!"
"Oh…Ian."
"I taste blood. Why would I taste blood?"
"You're bleeding Nehal!"
"Oh!"
"Anyways…I think Danielle and Heather are in Magical Menagrie!"
Nehal and Jackie went in the store and saw Danielle and Heather at the counter talking to the witch.
Heather said, "I need some food for my cat."
"And some for my bird." said Danielle
"What kind of food?" asked the witch
"Well, Timmy likes the best ones…" Heather said more to herself than anybody else.
"How do you know?"
"I can communicate with him!"
The witch looked scared. "Um…okay and what about you?"
Danielle said, "Sunshine likes Mcdoodles."
The witch gave them their food; they left the store and met up with Nehal and Jackie.
"Nehal what happened?" asked Danielle
"Slimeball." Nehal said disgusted.
Heather said, "Omg! Did Slimeball hit you? He's a women abuser! I never thought Draco Malfoy would be a women abuser."
"He's not a women abuser!" said Jackie. Heather, Danielle and Nehal looked at Jackie. "It was an accident. Draco wouldn't do something like that on purpose.
There was silence.
Jackie said, "Anyways…let's go shopping and get some new robes!"
"Yeah!" exclaimed Heather, Danielle and Nehal
Nehal said, "Wait. I can't go into the store looking like this."
"I can fix that." said Danielle. She pointed her wand at Nehal and said, "Kwqhoihqiri."
"Thanks Danie."
"Your welcome."
The four girls walked into Madam Malkains.
Jackie knew the lady that worked their, "Hey Rachel we need to try on the latest and stylish robes you've got!"
"Alright." Rachel went into the backroom and had a handful of robes. "Try these on."
"Thanks." said Jackie
The girls went into the change room and tried on the robes. They were dancing to the song I'm too sexy by Right said Fred. When they were satisfied, they each bought a couple of robes and walked out of the store carrying their shopping bags. (Jackie was at least carrying 5 bags)
The girls sat down on a near by bench to have a lunch. (Hey that rhymes)
"Where are we going next?" asked Heather
Danielle replied, "Well the only store we haven't been to yet is flourish and blots."
"But I was already there!" whined Jackie
"Ya but you didn't buy any books in there did you?" asked Nehal
"No." said Jackie. "But I can't go back, what if Draco's there."
"Why would Malfoy be there?" asked Heather
"He's like everywhere!"
Danielle said, "That's how I felt when I broke up with Pierre!"
"Whose Pierre?" asked Heather, Nehal and Jackie
"He's one of my many boyfriends!"
"Oh was he the one with the tattoo?" asked Jackie
"No that was Simon."
Nehal said, "So I guess Ian has been your longest boyfriend?"
Danielle laughed, "Surprisingly he isn't. I dated John – Paul – Marc- Luc for 2 years!"
Heather said, "That's a long name."
Danielle answered, "We had a long distance relationship."
Heather, Nehal and Jackie just stared at Danielle.
"Remember, when I went to Paris in the summer? That's when I met him. He was so romantic." sighed Danielle
"Did you love him?" asked Jackie
"No!"
"Uh…let's go get our books now shall we?" offered Nehal
The four girls walked into the book store. Right away, a man came to help them. "Hello how are you? Looking for books for school?"
"As a matter of fact we are!" said Heather smiling.
Danielle, Nehal and Jackie all looked at Heather.
"I was just stating the obvious." Heather rolled her eyes.
"Anyways." said Danielle. "We need to find Standard book of spells 6, Potions of the middle ages, History Fistory and Transfiguration for teens."
"Alright, follow me, follow me."
He handed the books to them. "Well go pay for the books and have a wonderful day!" He then muttered to himself, "I love back to school shopping. It means business for me."
"I hate back to school shopping!" said Heather
The man looked at her, "You weren't supposed to hear that!"
"Well I did!" Heather marched off
The girls paid for their books and left the store.
"That man was really creepy." said Nehal
"Yeah I know." said Jackie
Heather said, "He talks to himself."
They were walking when Nehal threw her arms out and said, "Slippery alert!"
"Where?" said Jackie
"Ow! Nehal, you hit the wrong place!" said Heather
"No way!" said Danielle. "Why is Ian talking to Casey?"
Heather said, "He is looking down her shirt!"
"Does that mean he likes tall girls?" Danielle said close to tears.
"No then he would have asked me out then." said Nehal
"Omg I can't believe this!" said Danielle. "First he talks to Ginny Weasley and now Casey!"
Heather said, "Well if it makes you feel any better I cheated on Neville."
"How could you Hey Hey?" said Jackie. "Neville is such a nice guy."
"Look at her!" Danielle said disgusted. "She's flirting with him."
Jackie said, "Omg! She's flirting with Draco too!"
The girls watched Ian, Casey and Draco for a while. Finally what seemed like hours Casey walked away.
Casey said, "Bye Ian. Bye Malfoy, see you at school." She touched Ian's cheek and poked Draco's abs.
"You think I should go talk to him?" asked Danielle unsure if she should start an argument or just pretend she didn't see it happen.
"I think we've had too many fights for one day Danie." said Jackie softly.
Danielle nodded mute and followed them.
While they were walking, Draco and his father were having an argument behind them.
"But father!" Draco protested. "We to be the best Quidditch team!"
"No! And that's final. I paid for the Nimbus 2001's and I'm not going to pay these brooms!"
"Father, I'm Quidditch captain!"
"Come on guys, let's go!" said Nehal as they started walking but Jackie turned around and saw Mr. Malfoy hit his son. (Gasp! No one hits Draco and gets away with it)
Jackie thought, "Omg. I did not just see that. Poor Draco, I'm going to see if he's okay and I'm gonna save him from his father."
Jackie said, "Um…guys I have to go to the washroom. Please hold my stuff…and I don't think you want to go to the washroom because those bean burritos your mom made…whew…okay bye!"
Nehal said, "My mom didn't make bean burritos today!"
Jackie followed Draco and Mr. Malfoy to a very dark place. (Knockturn Alley) Except Jackie didn't know she was following in that direction. She walked down these stone steps and looked back to where Diagon Alley was but it was blocked. She then proceeded forward but didn't see Mr. Malfoy or Draco and they surely would have stranded out in a crowd. "Uh oh." thought Jackie. "This is not good. I don't even know where I am? And why are all these people staring at me." Jackie winced and crossed her arms over her chest. Okay, remember what they told you at Girl Guides. If you're ever lost stay still a hug a tree. Jackie looked around. "Damn there no trees here!" (Ahaha I love that)
"Are you lost?" said a man and put his arm around Jackie's shoulders.
"Um…I…um…lost…um…" Jackie remembered that she thought that Mrs. Weasley was a scary stranger at first but then turned out to be really nice so she thought maybe this man would be like that too. "Oh yeah I'm lost you see I was with my friends and then I followed my ex and his father and then…"
"Don't worry babe, your safe with me."
"Babe!" Jackie practically yelled. Many other men came over.
The man smirked.
Jackie said, "I um…think I um…can find my way…back…thanks."
Jackie tried to run away but the man caught her by her wrist. "You aren't going anywhere…except 2 my place."
Jackie reached into her pocket to try and pull out her wand but it wasn't there. "Shit, I must have left it in one of my shopping bags." She looked at the man. "Can you please let go off me you're kind of hurting my wrist…please."
She saw people closing in on her and in the crowd she saw a hint of blond.
"Jackie? Why are you here?" said a familiar voice
"Draco?" said Jackie looking deep into his pale blue eyes.
"Hey back off Malfoy! This bi-otch is mine!" said the pervert man. He grabbed Jackie closer and she struggled harder. "Settle down, hot stuff. We're going to have some fun together!"
"Hi-Ya!" said Jackie and kicked him in the chin Charlie's Angel style.
The guy staggered back but grabbed Jackie along with him.
"Ahh!" screamed Jackie
"Stop it, you freak or you'll find my shoe up your butt!" said Draco
Jackie wasn't sure if Draco was talking to the weirdo or her but she ran behind him anyways.
"Get away you bastard!" said Draco and knocked the man's hat off his head.
"Oh you're going to get it now!" said the man. "That was my favorite hat!"
The one hat said to another hat, "Where do we go?"
"You stay here. I'll go on ahead."
The man punched Draco in the face.
"Ow! Yo, what the fuck was that for?"
"For trying to steal my whore!"
"Jackie's not a whore! She's a very good person. If you can't see that, I'll just have to show you." With that Draco punched the man in the face and in the stomach. He was about to go in for more when he got interrupted.
Jackie said, "No Draco, let's go!"
They both ran out of knocktrun alley holding hands. They stopped in Diagon Alley panting.
"Um…thank you Draco." said Jackie timidly
"It was my pleasure!" said Draco, smiling and still holding Jackie's hand.
They just stood there, smiling when suddenly Jackie realized what she was doing. "Oh um…" She said nearly letting go.
Just then, Draco turned around and saw his dad walking towards them, fuming.
"Should I…" said Jackie
"Ya, maybe you should go." said Draco, but that's not what Jackie meant to say.
"Will you be okay?"
"Ya, Jackie."
"Are you sure?"
"Just go!" said Draco, his voice breaking.
"Well…bye." said Jackie and ran away.
Jackie met up with her friends. "Hey guys!"
"Wow you must have taken a big dump!" said Heather
"Ya, I guess I did…well are we going back to your house Neh Neh?"
"You followed Malfoy." said Danielle icily.
"How did you know? I mean…I didn't follow him."
Nehal stood up. "Jackie listen to me. You don't want to get on Mr. Malfoy's hate list and you and I are both on it and if he sees you with Slimeball again then he could put a dark curse on you."
"You're not serious are you…?"
"Do I look serious?" Nehal said shaking Jackie's shoulders.
"Not really." answered Jackie
Nehal rolled her eyes. "Just stay away from Mr. Malfoy, okay?"
"Don't worry gurl I will."
Nehal smiled, "Come on guys let's go back to my house."
They all linked arms and walked away together.
